Sad Death Of a Boom.

The following from Tuesdays
American is quite graphic portray
al of the rise, progress and evapora-
ton of good many Of the booms
that are now affecting the country:
" Mention, with much flourish,
was made Il short space of time ago,
of contemplated scheme of gigantic
prospectus by an enterprising syndi-
cate in the interests of the Knights
Of Labor, no less thing than the
founding of new town at Gillem's
Station, on the Northwestern Divi-
sion of the Nashville, Chattanooga &
st. Louis Railroad, about forty miles
from Nashville, in Dickson county.
Time has elapsed, as time has way
of doing, land was bought and 10000
town lots of the regulation fifty feet
front were laid off. Passengers on
the passing trains looked out upon
long avenues cut into the dense
woods. On the left as you go to
Memphis a frame shanty upgrew,
and that is all there is of Tennessee
City, and the Tennessee City Land
and Improvement Company at and
about Gillem. One Shoenfeld, and
manager, announced a great sale for
March 10. Circulars were sent out to
the world. This stated that 500 Chi
cago capitalists would be present and
would buy unlmitedly. All Dick
son county assembled, but the Chica-
go capitalists came not. The circular
further set forth the immediate con-
strution Of 100 or more brick
buildings and 200 frames.
1t stated that a planning mill Of $4,000
feet capacity per day was already in
operation, and that brick machine
was making $4,000 brick per diem.
Shoenfeld bought in all the lots as
agent, but he gave deeds in his own
name, which, owing to the fact that
a mortgage still held the property in
its clutch, led to some investigation.
At thelast term of the Circuit court at
Charlotte one of twelve purchasers
had Mr.. Shoenfeld indicted for OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses,

BRADsTREHT's the weekly finan-
cial and commercial newspaper pub
lished BY the Bradstreet Company,
is now in its fifteenth volume, and
is surpassed by none of the fnan-
cial and commercial periodicals Of
this country or in Europe. In the
fourteen volumes already issued can
be found a greater diversity of
original and carefully prepared mat
ter-facts and figures--relating to
business topics than in any other
periodical during the same period.
Nor is it surprising that it has
reached and maintains that position,
for it is owned and published by a
large corporation--with its cash
capital and assets of over 81, 400, 900
its neary 100 branch offices, and its
small army Of over 1000 salaried
employees and $4,000 regular cor
respondent. This organization
makes extensive Investigations into
industrial and other matters, gath
ers full reports of the condition aud
prospects Of the leading crops, and
reports regularly each week the con-
dition of trade throughout the
country, thus practically making
Bradstreet's an authority as to the
condition and prospects of the COM
mercial world. It needs but 4
glance at the newspaper to satisfy
any one that its publishers have
been ambitious rather than ava
vicious. Files of Bradstreet ) have
become an acceptable and almost
indispensable journal for progressive
business men.

IT is certainly amusing though q
little painful to witness the zeal
with which our esteemed brother Of
the 4ddvcrtiser is determined to
build up, on the banks Of the Sew
ern, pesC city on the ruins of the
ancient one we all hold in such es-
TEEN and veneration. Much as we
admire progress in wealth, power,
and activity, we shudder at the idea
Of losing that sweetness and pla-
cidity of age that hedges in our
present greatness, and we hope our
brother will temper his zeal little,
and not force us at once into that
newness and greatness for which
we are SO lily prepared on SO short
q notice.
Has our brother the subtle power
Of the Alchemist-and is he able to
convert our oyster-shells into gold?-
that he is going to destroy all that
has the sanctity Of age, to make
room for a new city, new people,
aud that money-loving greed for
gold that characterizes those
among whom he has recently spent
SO many years? Without that
power or some other conjuration
equally astounding, our city must
be content to grow into greatness
by more gradual process, such as
The CAPITAL has always advocated.
